Replacing the Battery
When the remote transmitter's
battery begins to
get weak, it may
take several pushes on the button to
lock or unlock
the doors, and the
LED will
get dim. Replace the
battery as soon as possible.
Battery type: CR2025
To replace the battery, remove the
round cover on the back of the trans­
mitter by turning it counterclockwise
with a coin.

Remove the old battery and note the
polarity. Make sure the polarity of
the new battery is the same (
+ side
facing up), then insert it
in the
transmitter.
Align the
v mark on the cover
with the
0 mark on the
transmitter, then set the cover
in
place and turn it clockwise.
Transmitter Care
Avoid severe shock to the trans­
mitter, such as dropping or throwing
it. Also, protect it from extreme hot
or cold temperatures.
Clean the transmitter case with a
soft cloth.
Do not use strong
cleaners or solvents that could harm
the case. Immersing the transmitter
in any liquid will harm the trans­
mitter and cause it to not function
properly.
If you lose a transmitter, you will
need to have the replacement
programmed to your vehicle's
system by your Honda dealer. Any
other transmitters you have
will also
need to be reprogrammed.
